Such a mess – and all that money to help save people from foreclosure and stabilize the banks and create jobs – it hasn't done any of those things and on our level we have seen nothing from it all. Unemployment not up this week but not really down either and no new jobs of note. Foreclosures continuing to devastate families and only the banks seem to be surviving. Also, the press isn't really reporting much on this mess anymore – like its gone away! I guess its time for misery as usual......

Since the second plane hit on 9/11, America has been in a recession kept afloat only by an octogenarian's egregious rate cuts and 100% pure uncut American mortgage fraud.

When the Bush administration realized America was nothing but a morally bankrupt, culturally corrupt cesspool of failed policies, they needed someone willing to pimp out his company, employees and shareholders.

Ken Lewis raised his hand and in exchange for cold hard cash, agreed to acquire the Countrywide and Lehman fraud factories.

Henry Paulson, hack of ages, simply lifted the rug and tried to hide the contagion; any suggestion othewise is laughable beyond belief.

Should have used the shotgun & filled it with rock salt & shot Bof A in the Behind. I would not do bussiness with them if they were the only bank on earth.

So, you are saying that the banks are doing great, but the people are losing their jobs...and homes?
